Final part 3 of my Aug 2016 conversation with Dr. Kraft. Father of the Insulin Assay, and one of the most under-recognised greats of medicine and science. Here at aged 95 he covers Pathology, Hyperinsulinemia, Cholesterol, Atherosclerosis and other related topics. He has personally conducted over 3,000 autopsies with a particular focus on the heart.
Had a great time in South Beach Miami and West Palm Beach also – got a pile of content with the fantastic camera crew Simon and Giorgos from www.dietdoctor.com – watch out for our many Miami interviews and vox pops on the world’s biggest LCHF website ! Also gave uncompromising talk at Low Carb USA’s
Quick post on some interesting new research sent on to me by Raymund Edwards (thanks Raymund!). Only speed-read it but good to get it out for review. The old cholesterol and atherosclerosis thing has been doing the rounds for decades, while the data points to insulin-related dysfunction being vastly more important. Here we have a team
Well here we go again – deja vu. Just looking up some stuff on Free Fatty Acids this evening and came across this paper. These guys made the old mistake of measuring LDL in (a) healthy people, (b) Diabetics and (c) Acute Myocardial Infarction victims. Note that for all groups, patients on lipid-lowering drugs were
Had a great time with these Keto Dudes (Carl and Richard) – also cut through some orthodox bullsh”t ! My piece starts around 22 minutes… 🙂 …if you like seeing the real data, please subscribe for free to www.thefatemperor.com/subscribe !
A few people have been sending me queries recently about ApoB – the so-called ‘master-risk metric’ from the NMR test. We must question whether high ApoB is a problem in its own right. If ApoB is above ‘ideal’ – should one strive to lower it regardless? Should we attempt to lower it…’blindly’? Do we really believe that
Proving popular, and it should be. ‘Cholesterol’ put in its place, and the real worries for a shortened lifespan clarified. Plus details of the best test of all, to flag the fire inside. Most importantly, how to calm the flames, and live long & strong ! Don’t forget www.thefatemperor.com/subscribe for free, to keep the pipeline full…
One can forgive Peter’s sarcastic note in this old post from 2009. The whole cholesterol affair is risible and worthy of the deepest contempt. The Emperor needs to be dragged through the mud backwards, after all the damage his minions have caused ! http://high-fat-nutrition.blogspot.ie/2009/03/cholesterol-within-nations-studies.html
Isn’t that an interesting question – especially for people who have proven Coronary Artery DIsease? If you’ve been reading recent posts, you may take a guess at this one. Ok, I’ll put you out of hanging in suspenders there, and show you the results of this nice little study; again small sampling mathematical theory applies
Ok, we’ve been talking lately about Hyperinsulinemia / Insulin Resistance being one of the primary driver of the dysfunction that underpins Coronary Heart Disease and Atherosclerosis, and surmising that even the hallowed ApoB is just an interacting variable in the milieu – in other words: very low IR, then ApoB loses relevance… Anyway, these guys
